I think you are confusing who actually sounds like the conspiracy theorist here.

But this will get attention especially if the licensor/actor likeness is the restriction on it being a legit product.

If things go south between all these involved hands or the licensor decides to apply pressure regardless of proof you think you will see any of your money back from Chinese retailers? Good luck.
Sure it might get attention, but licensors haven't been able to stop China from producing bootleg stuff yet, and I really doubt this will be the one thing to change that.

Regarding the edition size, the 30 was the amount limited to mainland China and not the global ES.

There is no confirmation from anyone about an ES that I have seen. Has anyone even seen a picture of the bottom of the base? They know they have a potential gold mine (real or fake), so why put an ES on it?

There is no ES on this bust as far as I know. I suspect the manufacturer of it will produce as many as possible to satisfy demand.

I believe the R&D cost for this bust is quite high even though it is not licensed.

Man that sucks how his helmet was scuffed up. I doubt I would display mine either, but for the price you would still expect some better QC.
